To be fair, it wasn't obvious. Most are American and the Scottish titles nature of it is alluring and mythical in some ways. I think the bigger problem, is now that it's come out, youtubers are still pumping it.

I recently stumbled across a channel on copper and bronze age societies. The narrator isn't a professional historian, but they are a professional writer of historical fiction set in the bronze age and they're careful about historical authenticity so they know a fair bit about it. So this channel is a history channel. An actual history channel, unlike the History Channel. There's a lot I don't know about that period of time, so I'm finding it interesting.

This video, for example is about something I had no idea even existed. A large, wealthy society >6000 years ago with trade links stretching thousands of kilometres and very highly developed manufacturing in a variety of materials with a particular emphasis on gold. Which came from hundreds of kilometres away - this society was specifically a location for turning raw gold into very finely made objects. That's a lot of organisation and logistics. They also had what looks like writing, but not enough has been found to be sure. Maybe it was just a simpler form of marking, a sort of proto-writing. Maybe marks denoting ownership. Or maybe it was genuinely a written language. One of the Mesopotamian societies? Egypt? No. Bulgaria. Well, not Bulgaria back then. We don't know what they called their own lands. But it's Bulgaria now.
